This week I managed a session with the light in my front hallway, mentioned last week. Below is a chronological tracking of this painting, which was started back in October. Sometime during Daylight Saving and Winter this light phenomenon disappeared, but it is back in full force between 7-9am right now.<br />

I am excited about the idea of painting over old paintings right now, but allowing some remnants to show through. I also did a small, 5" x7" study of my legs, feet and one hand. In acknowledgement that I could use some work on painting/drawing hands and feet, I am trying to do more studies that involve solving that problem from life.</span><span style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8WFNkD0kEqw/WKdkHWA7WoI/AAAAAAAAD58/yp91U4Ue-YYQ-3NpcjCqFe94Cah_uqsLQCK4B/s1600/IMG_3480.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gvyDXIK8EL4/WKdkLGo0CqI/AAAAAAAAD6M/tFdW8gyfeuEpKA33mY_vysQJx-_LhYj3ACK4B/s1600/IMG_3481.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gvyDXIK8EL4/WKdkLGo0CqI/AAAAAAAAD6M/tFdW8gyfeuEpKA33mY_vysQJx-_LhYj3ACK4B/s400/IMG_3481.jpg" width="300" /></a> <img border="0" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8WFNkD0kEqw/WKdkHWA7WoI/AAAAAAAAD58/yp91U4Ue-YYQ-3NpcjCqFe94Cah_uqsLQCK4B/s400/IMG_3480.jpg" width="300" /></span></div>

This week I am excited to announce that a particular shape of light from my front window has returned, after a long absence following the time change. I've only lived in my house for a year now, so I am learning the ins-and-outs of the light shifts. Below is the light, I'm interested in painting, and the painting as its been since November. I'm hoping to paint this weekend if the weather is sunny.<br />
<br />

<br />
I also continued to work on my night window painting in the living room. Unfortunately, the lights are now blown out, so I need to go back and adjust my values. I have a little light of my easel, but I still end up over compensating because my palette is in the dark.<br />

<br />
I also worked more on the fruit and dead bird painting, appropriating enough on my Dad's death anniversary. Below is where it started at the beginning of the session and where it ended up, the orange's leaves wilted far more than the grapefruits'.<br />

Finally, to share inspiration this week. I listened again to <a href="http://www.jamesblandpaintings.com/">James Bland'</a>s wonderful interview with <a href="http://antrese.com/">Antrese Wood</a> on her <a href="https://savvypainter.com/podcast/james-bland/">Savvy Painter Podcast</a>. I love everything about the painting below, "Full Moon" has all the right moves in my opinion.<br />

This week I continued to work on the surprise commission that I referenced last week, so more anticipation without documentation. I also started a new night painting of the same lamp and corner of my living room that I'm also painting by day. I'm painting over a night kitchen painting that turned out TOO brown and it seemed very boring. If I were braver, I might have just sliced the middle third out of the kitchen painting and left it, but instead I'm just painting over it.<br />

My favorite part in the night kitchen painting, that now doesn't exist, was the reflection in the microwave. I am going to try to think about keeping some elements from the original painting in the new one, but I haven't quite figured it out. I also think it will happen organically. </div>

On a final side note, I stumbled across this image on <a href="https://micheledelcampo.wordpress.com/2010/10/12/andrew-wyeths-legacy/">Michele De Campo's Blog</a> and it seemed powerful and relevant. The act of staring into the world and finding meaning seems palpable in these two images side-by-side. It is difficult to articulate the connection felt to other painters and their records of looking...but it is real. </div>

In the studio this week, I slowly crept closer to finishing two paintings and managed to start a new painting. Sometimes I think I am wasting too much time and being indecisive with allowing the works to be adjusted at an infinitesimal level...but I am also just painting on them until they seem done...and sometimes that takes longer than I would initially anticipate.<br />
<br />
First is a window painting that takes place midday-to-late afternoon. Below is the very minor shift that happened this week: the right photo is where the painting is now, very minor changes on the right wall and window. I hope to adjust the interior/exterior relationships but it was very overcast so the painting session was slightly doomed from the start this week. <br />

Finally, a shout-out to the painter Jan van der Kooi. This work is partially a reaction his exquisite paintings, as featured above, that endlessly record the same windows. <a href="http://www.janvanderkooi.nl/">http://www.janvanderkooi.nl/ </a><br />
<br />
The second painting I worked on is a surprise commission piece, so I will share photos of that painting once it is complete. So on to the newest painting started this week. It is a still life featuring a dead Gray Catbird, and orange and a grapefruit. The bird flew into a window several months ago. I won't deconstruct my thoughts behind the work at this point because they are still percolating.<br />

This spring I am teaching a senior studio thesis course, BA Portfolio, at Flagler College. As part of the class, students are asked to maintain a record of their weekly activities on a blog, uploading a minimum of three process shots a week, a reflection on the work and any influences from the week. In an effort to keep up production during the school year, I am going to follow the assignment.<br />
<br />
As evidenced by the last post, it's been a while since I've acknowledged this platform...March 2015.....<br />
<br />
This week I worked on two paintings that have been going for sometime, so the changes were incremental. One is of my kitchen window at night. Below is the before and after of the moves I made on Monday night, I've been slightly lost on how to resolve the bottom half of this painting for a while, I think I am getting there.<br />

<br />
Here is where it started. I've abandoned the entire reason why I started the painting initially, which was looking at my sink and the window/plant. For whatever reason, it fit better in my viewfinder than on my panel. <br />

Here is one of my other painting in the works, I have been documenting the progress of this on Instagram Stories, but apparently wasn't saving the videos. Its of two windows in the corner of a room, during 3-4 different times of day. Again, this painting has been progressing steadily...on Wednesday I found another patch of light and worked on the bookcase. I also adjusted the sewing machine stand and central chair for the 100th time. </div>

This week, while walking my dog, I spent a good deal of time appreciating the pink azalea blooms </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
dotting the lawns of my neighbors. Next door, there is a bright yellow hose slung over a wooden fence, with several pink azaleas blooming adjacent. I've titled the non-existent painting, <i>Composition in Pink and Gold </i>after Whistler's <i>Nocturne in Black and Gold.</i> I don't have a photo to share, because I keep forgetting to grab my phone on my morning walk, when the light is right. I do however have a couple of azalea studies, a painting of Clover (a birthday gift for my friend Rachel), a selfie, and minimal progress on the end-table from last week. The selfie and azalea studies are covering up some lily paintings from winter break. </div>

In the studio this week, I worked on several small 7" x 5" paintings. <br />

The first of my unmade bed was a one shot deal...<br />

The third is still in progress. The lampshade moved from Thursday to Friday night, also in daylight I realized that the carpet is terribly yellow and will need to be adjusted accordingly.<br />

In the last week, I finished three paintings...just in time for the Flagler College Faculty Show, opening this Friday at the Crisp-Ellert Art Museum. I am hoping to start a new painting this evening, not entirely sure what it will be, my only guarantee is artificial light. Here are the finished pieces, proceeded by their starts (I will upload better photos next week, aka not iPhone photos, once I have them):<br />

Currently, my weekends and early week are the most productive. Last Saturday and Sunday, I was supposed to finish two paintings for the upcoming Flagler Faculty Show at the Crisp-Ellert Museum, opening in March. Instead, I started two paintings. This weekend, I am hoping to wrap-up loose ends, but I need direct sunlight...so I hope the clouds clear soon. In other news, I think I finished the coffee-pot/kitchen counter/sans-coffee-pot painting by allowing a kitchen towel to take the place of the coffee maker! See this weeks progress below:<br />

In the studio this week, my kitchen countertop painting went through some big shifts. Only after, repainting my coffee maker several times, did I decide to get rid of it all together. Below is the original start to the work(sometime in January) and where it stands currently.<br />

I was also able to finish and deliver this sweet tiny-small commission in time for Valentine's Day, a slightly belated wedding anniversary gift. This is not the tiny-small commission that I referenced last week, that one still needs a little work...which I plan to tackle after posting this. </div>

I went out of town from Monday-Wednesday to a conference this week, so my actual painting/studio time was very limited. With my current work schedule, I have dedicated studio time on Monday and Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings. I try to squeeze in other times too, but those are the defined times!<br />
<br />
This week I finished another tiny-small commission (pending proof approval).<br />
I started this small lightbulb study, 4.75" x 3.25", oil on MDF panel:<br />

I also tried to make good use of my time traveling by sketching people at the airport, in planes, and lost in screens at hotel lounge.<br />

Continuing my personal challenge to post one update a week with at least 5 process shots from my studio activities the week before. This week was less productive than some but I managed to squeeze in a little studio time. Here we go.<br />
<br />
I worked on this commission piece, a tiny-small 2"x 3.25", oil on mdf panel.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I think I finished this painting of my bedroom doorway, 10" x 8", oil on wood panel.<br />
<br />

I also started a new 10" x 10", oil on wood panel, landscape of the empty lot across the street from my house. The light is spectacular from 4-5:30 right now, obviously there is still lots of greenery in Florida this time of year. </div>

This spring I am teaching the Fine Art Senior Capstone, and as part of the class, students are required to post 5 process shots from that week's studio production. To try to set a good example, and to force myself to actually attempt to maintain this blog I am going to do the same. Below are the works that I spent time with this week in the studio.<br />
<br />
First up, is a work-in-progress shot of an 10" x 8", oil on wood panel, featuring my messy studio and nice morning and early afternoon light.<br />
<br />

Next, three little studies, each is 4.75" x 3.25", oil on mdf panel. The plant painting was completed on my stove while making dinner or following kitchen clean-up over a couple of days. The two work-out hoodie selfies were made pre and post Sunday night's episode of Girls. </div>

<br />
Finally, I started (and I think finished) this 7" x 5", oil on wood panel. Another selfie, painted while standing in my bedroom, featuring light from my bathroom.<br />

If this painting looks a little textured, here's why....<br />
<br />
Final work, <i>Find Ourselves on Familiar Ground, </i>10" x 8", oil on canvas, 2014.<br />
<i><br /></i>
The first painting was started on February 23, 2014, and the "final" work was completed on September 16, 2014.<br />

realizing I don't like my foot placement, or the length of my "slip", kitchen-floor-dance-steps<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

now everything is more or less making sense, except that I am "falling backwards", my arm needs to move forward to be aligned with my left leg.<br />
<br />

The following painting was a real challenge. Most paintings that I make go through transitions, ebbing and flowing throughout the process. This one in particular seemed elusive and constantly throwing me unexpected curves. In the end I am happy with it. I am still determined to get a painting of Marc with a branch complete at some point, but it was clearly not going to happen on that canvas. I am a firm believer that I just need to show up, and the paintings will eventually take care of themselves. The physical texture of the paint and the marks on the painting surface tell me what to do, or quite frequently what I am not capable of doing. Sometimes surprising things can happen, especially when this conversation is preformed on a regular basis. <i>The Routine,</i> the title for this painting, is as much about my niece preforming a horse riding exercise as it is about the act of painting itself. I hope you enjoy a peek into what was a very frustrating process.<br />

I am pleased to be a part of Liz Robbins' newest publication of poems. <i>Picked Strings</i> is an audio chapbook of poems, written and read by Liz Robbins. You can listen and download this book at EAT Poems, click <a href="http://www.eatwords.net/eat-poems-6/">here</a> or <a href="http://eat-magazine.bandcamp.com/album/picked-strings">here</a>. I created the painting <i>Blue Eyes When</i>, as the cover image for this collection. For obvious reasons, my favorite poem from the collection is <i>An American Artist Marries</i>. </div>

Here is the history of the cover painting, as always I am better at documenting some steps more than others. This painting started by covering up an older work, with a source photo change towards the end.</div>

In anticipation for my upcoming exhibition <i>Moments in Bloom</i> at Wynn Bone Gallery, I would like to share the process of painting <i>Placeholders</i>.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OvMvQuEdEsU/UbsasVVUKDI/AAAAAAAACO8/ok6VSgtl3Ms/s1600/sara_pedigo_show+invite.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OvMvQuEdEsU/UbsasVVUKDI/AAAAAAAACO8/ok6VSgtl3Ms/s640/sara_pedigo_show+invite.jpg" width="520" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Unlike many that I share, this painting came together very easily. The painting is based on a source photo taken in my backyard with my sister mimicking a ritual of hanging laundry. This act took both of us back to experiences we shared at our maternal grandparent's house. Memories of times spent at "Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw's house" fill our hearts with warmth. Martha's namesake is that of my maternal grandmother, and technically that of my mother as well. Her fair skin is also a legacy of those genes. My grandparents lived their entire lives in Chester, South Carolina. Their modest house featured a vast and open backyard, lots of green grass and a wooded area with swings and picnic tables. Entire summers were spent in that space. We feasted on "Chilly Willy" popsicles and homemade peach ice cream. They always had a large garden, I shucked buckets of corn and snapped many peas under those trees as a child. Nostalgia is certainly the right word for my feelings about that place.<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy Martha as a placeholder for those memories.<br />

Since September 2012 I started a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/painter.sarapedigo">Facebook Artist's Page</a>, if you haven't "liked" it already I encourage you to do so (shameless, I know). With its inception I have taken to posting updates on my painting process there and have fallen off on posting the progress here. With that in mind, I am going to attempt to start posting the end result of paintings, with the steps leading up to them here. Consider this a "total" recap. With all attempts that I make to record my process, the photos are erratic. Some paintings are better documented than others. Additionally, some steps have significant documentation, while others go for weeks without me taking photographs of the process.<br />
<br />
Below are the photos of the paintings Sleep Now No.1, No.2, & No.3. Each of these paintings is based on a photograph of my mother sleeping with myself or one of my two siblings. In actuality I am not sure if each of us is represented, but in my mind we are. No.1 is definitely me, No.2 has been fictionally assigned to my brother leaving No.3 for my sister.<br />
<br />

I am very happy to share the installation shots of <i>Remember Where We Parked</i>, the show closed yesterday at Florida School for the Arts at St. Johns River State College. It was a fantastic show and I would like to give a special thanks to Sarah Alexander, the gallery director, for making it possible.<br />
